Jun 17th, 23:47 UTC
The Casbah Project has today released the first public
release of its free software Web application framework. DALLAS, TX (18 June 1999) -- The
Casbah Project today released version 0.1.1, the first public release, of the Casbah
Web application framework. Details about Casbah-0.1.1 are available
at http://casbah.org/Latest.
The goal of The Casbah Project is to build a free software web
application framework, allowing developers to build Web applications
rapidly and effectively. The Casbah Project was founded in January,
1998.
Casbah-0.1.1 includes CAIRO, the Casbah application server; the CASBAH
IDE; an early-release version of COPTIC, the persistent object store; and
LDO, Lightweight Distributed Objects, a multi-language distributed
object protocol which has binary and XML serialization formats.
Casbah-0.1.1 is a development release; it is not yet ready for
production use. Casbah is fully documented and is built around a set
of well-designed core APIs. The present Casbah implementation is
composed of Java and ANSI C code. Casbah uses
Gamora, a free software Java server framework
developed by Scott Miller and others.
If you are a Java, C, or XML/SGML hacker, or if you're interested in
Web application tools, content-management systems, or scripting
languages, there's a place for you on the Casbah team. If you're
interested in helping us build Casbah, please visit our Web site or

Casbah mailing lists.
